Thank you everyone for your thoughtful replies. I've mentioned that I want to use Streams to keep tiddlers short and reusable, but how would I reuse them when they have auto-generated titles? I think it would be inconvenient to search for keywords and guess which tiddlers contain the content I want to transclude / link to.
